Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 small catfish filets or two large
  • 2 fresh lemons
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • First put your catfish filets in a bowl and squeeze some lemon juice on 'em. Put a skillet on at medium high and add the butter. 3 small filets for just me and Gammy I used a 10 inch skillet and a half stick of butter. Then the juice from a small lemon - or half of a large one. A pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. When the butter and lemon juice have stopped bubbling lay the filets in the skillet.
  • Spoon some of the liquid on them as they cook. Just a minute and a half to two minutes a side depending on their thickness. When they are white and starting to get firm they are ready. Don't forget to spoon the liquid on them as they cook. You could garnish them with a little dried parsley or not. You're the boss!
